James O’Keefe Obtains U.S. Army Documents Exposing Violent Venezuelan Gang Threat in NYC — National Guard Reportedly on High Alert!
Gateway Pundit ^ | 9/7/24 | Him Hoft

Posted on 09/07/2024 12:01:12 PM PDT by hardspunned

Investigative journalist James O’Keefe has obtained leaked U.S. Army documents revealing the growing threat of the Venezuelan criminal organization Tren de Aragua (TDA) in New York City.

The Tren de Aragua, one of Venezuela’s most dangerous gangs, has reportedly established a foothold in key neighborhoods across Brooklyn, the Bronx, and Williamsburg, with an estimated 400 members currently residing in those areas.

According to the documents, which are categorized as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), Tren de Aragua is actively involved in human trafficking, drug smuggling, and arms dealing, posing an imminent threat not only to local communities but to law enforcement officers themselves.

O’Keefe Media’s exposé comes on the heels of unsettling footage showing National Guard troops stationed at key transit points in New York City, including subway stations.

43 “Foreigners who live in your land will gain more and more power, while you gradually lose yours. 44 They will have money to lend you, but you will have none to lend them. In the end they will be your rulers.

45 “All these disasters will come on you, and they will be with you until you are destroyed, because you did not obey the Lord your God and keep all the laws that he gave you.

Michael Yon on Twitter posted these verses on his Twitter account a year or so ago.

Maistre had a point. But he lived in an era before mass propaganda. The mainstream media is telling Americans lie after lie about the illegals and everything else. “Everything is fine. We must welcome our productive new citizens.”

Until an illegal breaks into their home or attacks them on the street, half the country won’t even know what’s going on here.

Problem with the National Guard. If they are strong in their battling against armed illegal sociopaths who routinely behead enemies and torture abducted women and children to get extortion money, then Dems will say the National Guard is too Kent State like.

They are trained to be as nonviolent to city college protesters and BLM types as possible.

But if they do not show strength then the gangs will be emboldened further with only vigilantes to protect the American populace.

Great points. The media keeps the truth away from people.

So let Gov. Hochul order the National Guard to take proactive action, and Brandon to order the DOJ to stop persecuting Trump and J6ers, and get off their a@@es.

That’s when the National Guard goes up against them. What happens when grandmothers and single moms go up against them?

Looks like the military is taking a step into law enforcement. I’m sure that is nothing at all to be concerned about.

The classification of “Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI)” use to be known as “For Official Use Only.” Which meant it was just for “authorized military personnel to know” and was NOT a security classification.

Of course some of us more cynical types said that FOUO meant “F**k Off U all.”

Probably thinking that what is happening here looks an awful lot like what happened last time.

I love how the new narrative about this seems to be:

"Oh, you've noticed the Venezuelan gangs?"
"You MUST be racist!"

RE: ....when grandmothers and single moms go up against them.

It will be “heard around the world.”

Concord Hymn

By Ralph Waldo Emerson
Sung at the Completion of the Battle Monument, July 4, 1837.

By the rude bridge that arched the flood,
Their flag to April’s breeze unfurled,
Here once the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard round the world.

The foe long since in silence slept;
Alike the conqueror silent sleeps;
And Time the ruined bridge has swept
Down the dark stream which seaward creeps.

On this green bank, by this soft stream,
We set today a votive stone;
That memory may their deed redeem,
When, like our sires, our sons are gone.

Spirit, that made those heroes dare
To die, and leave their children free,
Bid Time and Nature gently spare
The shaft we raise to them and thee.

400 is not a street gang. 400 is an army.

New York, Chicago, Denver. All have strong, corrupt governments that openly sympathize with the "newcomers", all are sanctuary cities, all have oppressive gun control. All have disaffected, unsupported police organizations, prosecutors who don't prosecute, and media who are completely in collusion with the policies that are destroying their cities. Placing the National Guard into that is like putting a bandaid on a sucking chest wound.

I have no doubt that these gangs are quite adept at avoiding the federales regardless of whatever uniform.

We didn’t let them in, the Democrats let them in. In addition to being a political party, the Democrats are a criminal conspiracy.

Well argued. Human institutions, whether journalistic or governmental, are inherently disappointing. It is foolish to rely on them if one has not first reached salvific reliance on God.
